To do so, they must take certain steps to document everything they can about the accident. This can include taking pictures of the conditions, contacting emergency services, writing down witness contact information, receiving medical care, and more. All this information can be used later on in proving the negligence of the property owner. During this time, it is important to remember the statute of limitations.
